re: #52 wrenchwench

A week ago, I walked home from work, using a flashlight to pick my way through some ice and snow, at times. The flashlight helped me not walk into the broken branch dangling at face level. I saw some moss and lichen on it, so I grabbed a twig to take home to see in the light. I saw green moss, gray/green lichen, and tiny purple buds at all the tips. So I stuck it in a glass of water.

Today, four buds popped open, showing pink petals.
